Many of you probably know I am Wiccan. So it will probably come as no surprise to you that I am a full believer in lunar cycles and how they affect many of our bodies' cycles. I would not be surprised to see that this would ring true about having more pain and Herxing around a full moon. I also used to work in many different capacities in vet's offices for over 13 years. Where ever I worked, we always noticed (not just joked!) that around full moons, more things occurred, we were busier, and things always seemed to just go wrong. It's not just for laughs that many ER offices are more fully staffed around full moons, either. Violence certainly seems to be higher. Lunar cycles seem to affect certain chemicals in our bodies and how they interact with one another. Buckron, I think you're onto something. I have to say that yesterday, I went to bed thinking, this wasn't a bad day, I think I can classify this actually as a rather decent day, perhaps even a good day. Today has been what I would actually call a good day! I'm in a lot of pain, still, but tolerable. And I FEEL good. My attitude is much better, I WANT to get up and get out and do things. I don't feel so depressed, either.  Jen Just because it's impossible doesn't mean it can't happen.
I'm not a doc, so anything I say is my opinion only. Nothing I say is meant as offense, I offer what I can as help. I believe in educating myself on all my medical issues and being my own advocate, for no one else with do that on my behalf. I recommend we all do the same!
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Perhaps I truly am insane for expecting these docs to listen to me when I say the same things repeatedly to no avail? LOL. I am tired of seeking out new docs and getting the same result time and again...Forgive me if I seem bitter some days.
Something has changed within me/Something is not the same/I'm through with playing by/The rules of someone else's game/Too late for second-guessing/Too late to go back to sleep/It's time to trust my instincts/Close my eyes and leap...I'm through accepting limits/Cuz someone says they're so/Some things I can not change/But till I try I'll never know/Too long I've been afraid of/Losing love I guess I lost/Well if that's love/It comes at much too high a cost/I'd sooner buy Defying Gravity/Kiss me good-bye I'm Defying Gravity/I think I'll try Defying Gravity/And you won't bring me down...

"MDJ is an integral part of my everyday life. Since joining in 2010, I have met so many amazing people. It is truly incredible to be able to share good times and not so good times with others who face the same health challenges. And MDJ has support groups for every condition I have. I don't know of anywhere else that can offer that. I love that I can learn from others as well as offer my own experiences for others to learn from." (jaguarandcubs)
